When rendering a transparent object using the following:
rgbf<1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0>
 reflection { 0.17, 1.0 fresnel on  }
conserve_energy
with NO dispersion, I get a black image.
Change the color to rgbf<0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0> and I get a bright green image.
Change the color to rgbf<0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0> and I get a bright blue image.
Any value of red only produces a black image.
A red value with a green and/or blue value seems to work fine.
Is this part of the problem I reported on Jan. 19, 2003 or is this something
different?

What are the surroundings? You did not give enough information to guess 
what the image should look like.

It seems extremely unlikely.

I posted a scene at povray.text.scene-files under the subject Red is Black.
